When Fats Waller performed this everyone understood the double meaning. Were the Sisters so naive that they didn't get it? Or was this a joke played on them by their management? Or did they get it and it was a joke played on the listening public? Very confusing!
I hear that this song went against the prudish tide of the times with severe reaction to "hold tight, hold tight" part. The double entendre in the lyrics. Was this true, anyone?
@ccaammiiittoo1@ccaammiiittoo1 I dunno, it could be true. but it's obvious the lyrics hold extreme undertones here haha but that's how many many songs back then were written, different times and not 'polite' (for lack of a better word :)) to give away too much info about the physical side of relationships and stuff unlike now where ya just rap or sing bout man/girl parts and crap like that, TMI haha
i love this song, it's cute though!! the andrews sisters are cool chicks :)

Great song! The sexual innuendo is priceless! Fats Waller (the song writer) often put in his songs rather risque sexual references.
